Only Son Kills “both parents” in Anambra

An unidentified student of one of the institutions in Anambra State has allegedly killed his father and mother and abandoned their corpses in a room.

The incident happened in the Nnewi area of the state.

It was gathered that the corpses of the deceased had already started decomposing when they were discovered by neighbours after a foul smell started oozing out from their room.

Although, no one could ascertain the period the incident took place, the corpses, which were discovered on Thursday, had thrown the community into mourning.

A source in the area told journalists that the student was the only son of the parents.

The source said, “The corpses of the man and his wife were discovered by neighbours after perceiving an offensive smell from the room. They must have been killed by their only son.”
